squeak, squeak-images and squeak-sources are all available for PPC users, but they rely on squeak-vm which has no package for PPC users...
The source for squeak-vm compiles on PPC and squeak.org provides linux/PPC binaries... just curious why it's not in the repositories.
Tried using prevu to compile it on my system, and it seems to compile fine, just gets rejected afterwards as it claims my architecture isn't supported...
I can use the binaries provided by squeak.org just fine, just wish I could use my regular package manager..... Also I notice x86 users have a nice little menu before they open up Squeak that lets them pick which image to work on.... which I suspect is an Ubuntu improvement, id like to have access to.
